We are happy to have a lot of people booked already. In the first couple of weeks we have about three movie cast shows. Executive Producer, Terence Noonan, Anderson, and I have all been involved in looking at movies and choosing movies that we believe are appealing to the “Anderson Live” audience. One of which is “Arbitrage” with Richard Gere, who will be on the show with the film’s cast.

Also a movie already getting Oscar buzz, “End of Watch” with Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña — who are both getting a lot of buzz for their performances. Jake will come on with Michael to talk about their film.

Thanks for the Anderson info, too. I'm really looking forward to Jake 's TV appearances for EoW. I know they'll likely center on NYC because of the play, but I also hope he will get to the LA premiere.

After reading the Details interview yet again, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Jake to do a session on Inside the Actors Studio. Soon. : )

I'd love to see Shalespeare in the Park. The late Joseph Papp, the founder,is one of my idols. We once tried for Al Pacino in Merchant of Venice, but no luck. Altho my youngest daughter has seen Meryl Streep!

Ha, Good point! By the way, you were talking about how you don’t think you’d ever work with your children Maggie or Jake, but do you want to?

They’re spectacular actors, I’d love to work with them. But I’d rather be their dad, that’s more important or delightful to me. There is no second-place in life next to being a parent. That’s it, and then everything else is way back there somewhere. And then being a grandparent.

It makes you just fall in love with human beings that you can’t imagine ever happening. Yeah, I’d love to work with them, but not at the expense of being a dad.

" JAKE GYLLENHAAL’s famous face did not get him special access to the set of “Smash” Wednesday night. The hunky movie star was strolling down Mercer St. in SoHo with a mystery woman when the pair stumbled upon the set of the hit NBC show starring Katharine McPhee and Debra Messing. The street was closed to the general public, and when Gyllenhaal, sporting black gym shorts and a hat, and his pretty brunette babe tried to walk down Mercer they were stopped by security. According to our eagle-eyed spy on the street, after inquiring what was going on, Gyllenhaal was told by security he had to take a detour, and the actor complied humbly."

Hi, how are you guys, girls? I've been bit by the world of Jake, my pc is broken and I'm hesitant to fix or buy another as soon as, I decide I will using the pc of my work on my lunch hour rs, is the way!Next week is already the premiere of Jake in the theater, right?A great weekend to all! see you soon!:)

Some people complained that Jake looked fat on the "An Enemy" set photos. So I guess he tried to explain why his body wasn't as fit as usual. Maybe he exaggerated a bit when he claimed that he didn't work out at all.

Another positive reaction on "End of Watch" (from an Anna Kendrick fan; certainly not an objective opinion on the movie, but anyway it's nice to hear that):

The Meeting of Anna Kendrick: "So when Lauren secured passes to screen a few of Anna’s upcoming films “Pitch Perfect” and “End of Watch” I was interested. Both films are incredible, but also very different. “Pitch Perfect” is Ryan Murphy’s worst nightmare – a well crafted movie about musical competition with the perfect balance of snark, humor and heart. People who fear it is “Glee: The Movie” are in for a surprise, it blows “Glee” out of the water. “End of Watch” is a tense and gritty police drama starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Anna plays third fiddle here again but the movie is so great that I don’t blame her for jumping at the chance to be a part of it."

NBC: "End of Watch' is a found-footage style film. How did that affect the way you acted? That fly-on-the-wall approach."

Anna Kendrick: "Actually, in places, it was difficult to remember that, because we were improvising so much for so long. And there would be times where we would allow a real conversation to just bleed into a scene. So there would be times when Jake [Gyllenhaal] would be telling me that something happened in his home town and I'd think, 'Wait – YOUR hometown or Brian's hometown? But that was exciting. Then it's trying to remember, ‘Okay, once we are in a scene I am this character and I am not myself.’ Because, yeah, the line started getting really blurry. But that was exciting."

Solely based on HSX.com EoW would enter the U.S. box office charts at #5 on September 21st, behind "Trouble with the Curve", "Dredd", "The House at the End of the Street" and "Finding Nemo 3D" (opening on September 14th). "Resident Evil" might still yield $10 million on its second weekend. "The Master" is another competitor, expanding on September 21st.

On September 28th EoW would probably enter at #3 behind "Looper" and "Hotel Transylvania".

Maybe Open Road doesn't want to change the release date again and has opted for a limited release on September 21st or maybe Screen Invasion's schedule is just false.

When you put it like that, Hagen... Neither weekend is ideal. I was hoping for a good box office story for EoW. I still think it will do well for its budget, but that horserace mentality will make it seem like a bust.

Oh, hell. Jake likes rap and hip hop, and Mumford style Folk music and who knows what else. Whatever. Her fans live in a very small world. And she seems to be losing respect with every passing day. It's like she's a joke.

Thanks for the red band trailer.: )

Just thinking. If I was an agency repping two different artists, I sure would try to make sure one artist wasn't doing things to negatively affect the other one.

OK. I heard "the song." Well, most of it. : ) It sounds like high school. It's definitely teencentric. I really don't think Jake's the subject. I guess it's inevitable she'll refer to him at some point, but I don't think it's this song. This song implies a long term, off and on relationship.And it's a crap song, too.

Jake is the kind of guy who can do a spot-on impression of someone you work with. He plays guitar and has a great voice. Kids and dogs love him. He loves his mom and sister and girlfriend. He's perfect. Too bad he's ugly. ~ Natalie Portman
